HULBERT, BLAIR
Looking for information about George W. HULBERT who came to Nebraska from New York in 1859. He married Elizabeth BLAIR in 1862. I am interested in knowing if there were related HULBERT's in Nebraska in that time period.

The information I have shows George was born NY in 1837. His father was William HULBERT. His mother was Samantha (SANDERS) HULBERT. George and Elizabeth lived in Kearney (Buffalo Co.) NE and in Beatrice. George rode Pony Express when he first came to Nebraska. He later started a stage line. In 1900 he moved to Oregon.

BENJAMIN, COOK, DOLEN
I am seeking information on my great grandfather James Consider BENJAMIN. He was born in NY and moved with his family (Ambrose and Harriet (COOK) to Wisc. The 1850 census lists the family in Racine Wisc and lists James C as three years old. His parents were both deceased when James was still a teenager and he worked on farms until he moved on to a homestead in Gage Co. NE...a day book notation states December 2nd 1867 moved onto homestead. He married Emily DOLEN about 1869 and I believe he was still in the Gage county area. James was receiving mail in Beatrice NE in 1893.

KENYON, FULLER, NUTTING
My mom was born in Custer Co., NE but I have traced her maternal grandparents to Gage Co. Their surnames are KENYON and FULLER. The Kenyons came to Hooker twp sometime just before 1870. Ralph A and Emerette (Nutting) Kenyon were the parents of Willard, George, John Albert(my g-grandfather), Wallace B., Helen, and Rest.

The Fullers came to Hooker twp sometime between 1860 and 1870. John and Nancy were parents of George W. (my g-g-grandfather), Susana, Margaret, Elita, Uriah, Mary, Jonathan, Nancy, Polly, and Orrin. George W. Fuller had married Lydia ROY in Indiana and their eldest daughter, Sarah Isabel, married John Albert KENYON, in 1875, in Gage co. Their first 3 children, Maude, Oscar, and Edith were born in Hooker twp area. My grandmother Lula Mae, and 3 others were born in Sargent, Custer co. after the family moved there.

Iwould love to find any additional information you might have on my family in your area. One of the things that I was hoping to find out was whether obits from the 1905 era are available. That is the year that Ralp A. Kenyon is said to have passed away and was hoping to find an obit on him to get a clue about his parents. Also on Emerette, however, I'm not sure when she passed away.
